About Forever Wingman
I'm not a recruiter. Just an AF vet helping the next generation of Airmen.
My name is Josh. Just a guy navigating life with my hotty wife, two boys, and three cats (Rex, Link, and Grace). I started Forever Wingman in 2016 as a hobby to help folks thinking about enlisting in the Air Force. I never thought it would grow into what it is now: a resource for nearly every aspiring Airman joining up.
No agenda here. Just the honest answers I wish somebody had given me before I signed.

I am by far not an expert in all things Air Force. What I share comes from living it, and from careful research when it doesn't. When something changes, your recruiter is always the final word on current policy.

Where I put everything
The courses are the guide I wish I'd had
Everything on this site is free, and it always will be. The courses are where I organized the whole journey: AF099 for BMT, AF101 from “should I join?” to your first assignment, and AF102 for your first term — alongside the full AFSC database and search tool.
Need to get a hold of me?
I love hearing your success stories and how the site has helped. I may not be able to respond to every email, but know I'm smiling on the other end.
